I'm gonna say no to both
The exact opposite.
Unfortunately no; his parents are divorce but they still keep a good relationship. My parents got divorced at one point but ended. Back together and now they seem happier. I say no because I think the love that I'd wish I seen in my parents I never did much growing up. I would say its the same for him.
yeap... :) him.. not so much
All the time.
We both had really good examples. As I have gotten older I have realized that my parents didn't have the perfect marriage, which is what I believed when I was younger. I've realized that our marriage is "our" marriage and is going to be unique.
I agree. I am grateful for my parents that showed that a marriage should be strong together.

I did but my husband family is a mess they all had been with a lot of relationships after there first marriage and have at least to different baby daddies
I think I had great relational role models growing up, and she might of had a different type of role model with it but it's just made her who she is today.
My parents got divorced when I was in first grade. I'm not going to say anything about his parents.
yes my parents were married for 28 yrs, then my dad passed away, n they would hardley ever argue
my husbands parents have been married 43 yrs and rarely argue yes i'd say so
my husbands parents have been married 43 yrs and rarely argue yes i'd say so
I know that she did, but I did not...
I did. My parents were happily married (to my knowledge) and still are. But then there's grandma who had 3 husbands, but they were gone before I was born.
No, I don't think so.
I'm going to say not so much. My parents divorced when I was in elementary school and his parents split up around that time as well.
From what I can tell the relationship role models that he had in his life were much stronger than the ones in mine. However, now I have that role model relationship in my life as well because I am close with his parents
